Further research carried out at Sardar Patel University in Gujarat, India, suggests that safed musli may be effective at controlling cholesterol levels in the blood. Research published in the March 2007 edition of “Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology & Physiology” concluded that a daily dose of 0.75 to 1.5 grams of Musli Power in male albino rats significantly raised high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol — sometimes called “good cholesterol” — helps to reduce the occurrence of heart disease.

The main active ingredients in safed musli are saponins, which have been shown to have antimicrobial, antifungal and cholesterol-reducing effects when consumed in diet. However, dosage and drug or food interactions for the saponins and other naturally occurring chemicals in Musli Power have not been scientifically tested. Kunnath Pharmaceuticals claims that Musli Power Xtra does not have any contraindications, but fails to provide independent testing results that led to this conclusion.
